Add to this the way they try to require you to have subscriptions for your appliances now. My fridge has a water filter. They want me to subscribe to filter replacements. They have a light that tells me when to replace the filter. I suspect it's based on time rather than volume of water filtered. Sometimes the water continues to taste fine, so I don't replace it immediately. They do have an attachment you can use to not filter the water, but the filter does actually seem to do something I like. I just wish it didn't feel like such a ripoff. And this is after replacing the fridge our house came with and which couldn't have been 5 years old when we moved in. We went with a different brand but I'm not sure it will make any difference.
